There is a review of the PowerColor PCS+ R9 380 posted at LanOC today that is certainly worth checking out. Here's a quote from the full review to get you started:
So today I’m going to check out the card from PowerColor and see what they have going on and along with that we can see if having the additional frame buffer is worth it in our benchmark suite. With these cards not exactly being focused towards higher resolution gameplay I’m not sure if we will see too much at 1080p but given the 1440p numbers we saw before I bet we see some improvement there!
I have an R9 285 I bought used off cl for fun. Interesting that the R9 380 seems to have noticeable performance and power improvements relative to the 285, though certainly not enough to make you go out and replace an existing R9 285.
I'd say that with the R9 380, AMD looks better than NVidia with the GTX 960 in this $200-ish price range. And 4GB versions of the 380 probably make more sense than the 4GB versions of the 960.
